What you eat is what we need: using ants to detect spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula) DNA

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
The workflow of the ‘antDNA’ method. Ants actively forage on honeydew produced by sap‐sucking insects such as the spotted lanternfly (SLF) and can retain it in their crops, serving as effective ‘honeydew samplers’. Combined with a simple endpoint polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based molecular assay, the ant‐derived DNA (antDNA) method provides an ...

Olfactory preference in chemical host plant recognition by male and female click beetles and its implications for pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Click beetle (Elateridae) olfactory preferences for plant volatiles, including those released by damaged plants, remain poorly understood. Olfactometer and electroantennography experiments revealed sex‐ and plant species‐specific olfactory preferences of Agriotes sputator beetles, with maturity influencing female responses.

Characterization of cyantraniliprole resistance in Spodoptera frugiperda: Selection, inheritance pattern, and cross‐resistance to other diamide insecticides

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
A cyantraniliprole‐resistant strain of Spodoptera frugiperda with I4790K mutation exhibited a resistance ratio of 3414‐fold and high cross‐resistance to other diamide insecticides. Abstract BACKGROUND Cyantraniliprole, a diamide insecticide, is widely used in Brazil to control sucking and defoliating pests, including the fall armyworm (Spodoptera ...

Influence of bait and habitat on site visitation by wild pigs (Sus scrofa)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bait, a food item, is important for attracting wild pigs to a site for management and considering habitat, including distance to water and understory, increases likelihood of wild pig visitation. Abstract BACKGROUND Wild pigs (Sus scrofa), known for their impacts on ecosystems in both their native and invasive ranges, are commonly managed using lethal ...

Intercropping mitigates incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Intercropping reduces the incidence of the oilseed rape insect pest complex with a significant impact of the direct visual and physical disruption provided by the companion plant. Abstract BACKGROUND Oilseed rape (OSR, Brassica napus) is a major crop requiring numerous phytosanitary treatments.

Modeling, virtual screening, and enzymatic docking of trehalose 6‐phosphate phosphatase and evaluation of the insecticidal effect of phthalimide, N‐(p‐tolylsulfonyl) on Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of the experimental procedures used to perform the bioinformatic steps and insecticidal assays using trehalose 6‐phosphate phosphatase of Aedes aegypti and the molecule phthalimide, N‐(p‐tolylsulfonyl). Abstract BACKGROUND Aedes aegypti Linnaeus is a medically important vector because of its role in transmitting several arboviruses ...

Mechanical Weed Control

2018
Evolution of herbicide resistance in weeds has increased the importance and scope of mechanical weed control. In many parts of the world, the efficacy of mechanical weed control has been reevaluated. Tillage (used for soil preparation for planting), although among the oldest methods of weed control, is still the preferred method of weed control for ...
